“Rachel did an excellent job caring for our pets. She was responsive and we could tell she went above and beyond to care for our cat Toby! I would definitely book with Rachel again for our next trip.”
“Sara was able to accommodate a last minute request after our original pet sitting plans fell through. She took great care of our cats and I would definitely work with her again!”

We had lots of reassurance Peach was in good hands when Kassidy provided regular updates and photos of her while we were on an extended trip away from home.

About: I am a veterinary assistant and have worked and surrounded myself with animals my whole life. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters, worked with vets, and was a dog handler and a doggie daycare over the past few summer years. I have experience with cat, dogs, fish, rodents, reptiles, and more. I love hiking and spending time outside as well, so hikes with dogs are more than welcome! I recently moved to Boise and am excited to get to know the area, so taking your dog on walks is the perfect excuse for me to explore ;) I work Monday-Friday from 8am to 5pm so i before and after my shift I can take care of your furry, scaly or slimy friends! I also don’t work weekends at all so my availability is wide open! When working with animals in their own homes, I think it’s important to understand you’re coming into their space and to work slowly to earn their trust! I have worked with many different animals and know how to read body language, so if your pet is uncomfortable I know how to work with them and listen to their needs.
About: Hi there, fellow pet lovers! I’m Cynthia, and I’m so glad you stopped by... I live in the beautiful North End of Boise and have been pet-sitting for years, caring for dogs and cats! Consider me your trusted ally who is dedicated to enriching your pet's daily experience while simplifying yours. I grew up with Saint Bernards, so handling large dogs is second nature to me. Our home was always full of animals—strays, rescues, and the occasional “foster fail” who became family. We made room for whoever needed it, and that mindset has stayed with me ever since. I’m comfortable with a full range of pet temperaments, whether they’re anxious zoomers or mellow seniors who just want a calm presence and some TLC. Got a skittish kitty? A bossy little lion? No worries, I speak fluent feline! With a background in cat enrichment and behavior modification, I have a knack for earning the trust of even the most standoffish and secretive cats. Whether your furry companion is shy, bold, or somewhere in between, I can read kitties well, and I always bring a calm, grounded energy that helps them feel safe and secure. I’m also borderline obsessive (in a good way) about secure entries and exits. If your pet is a known escape artist, trust that I’ll take special care not to let them out! Whatever kind of care your best friend needs, I’m happy to help with drop-in visits, walks, meds, belly rubs, playtime, you name it. Also, please ask me anything if you can't find it in my profile! I'm happy to discuss extra services that you or your pet needs to feel loved, safe, and happy while you're away! I am recently retired early from the tech industry and now have time to give back to my community and neighbors! I'm available 7 days a week, and for overnights if needed and if the fit is right! Contact me anytime, and we can coordinate something that works, whether it's just hanging out with your pet or having a fun adventure! I've lived a lifetime with pets and rescued animals, so for me they are family. I treat all living things with respect, understanding, and care. I'm always thinking ahead of potential scenarios when planning any outings, making sure I'm prepared with extra leashes, treats, and/or a strong understanding of an area and what to expect.
About: I am an extremely respectful and responsible pet sitter and dog walker. I have experience with extremely hyper puppies, lovable aging dogs, as well as a team of 14 sled dogs whom I trained and took care of when I lived in Alaska. I am an active person who loves to walk, run, and bike; therefore adding a furry friend to the mix would only be icing on the cake! I believe communication is key, I will follow all rules, and I will never put your pet in a questionable or dangerous situation. I will treat them with love and care, always. I work full time, but my schedule is flexible. I can stop by before and/or after work for visits or walks and can even come over at lunch if needed. I will respect your home and clean up after myself and your pets. My home has a fenced in back yard with a doggy door into our kitchen.
About: I've never had a dog myself but I love being around them! I've helped take care of dogs in the family for a few years now! I’m a college student looking to earn some extra side money! That being said I don’t have a completely open schedule but definitely willing to work with you!! I am not offering services that include bringing your pet to my home because I am in circumstances that wouldn't make that very beneficial but I will do everything I can to ensure your babies feel loved!
About: Trust with neighbors animals has been put in me since I was 13. I grew up with all sorts of animals and throughout all of high school and more was taking care of animals. I specialize in dogs and cats but also have experience with all sorts of animals. I pay attention to details and will make sure your animal is well cared for and comfortable. I have class a couple hours of the day mon-thur and have a part time job some nights but very flexible and would make sure to figure out a schedule that works for everyone! I always make sure the animal feels as comfortable as possible in their own home. Never have anyone besides me in the house and accommodating the animals needs.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was young and have pet sat for friends neighbors and family members. Along with pet sitting I have 2 pooches of my own one of which requires some extra special care. I have experience taking care of pets of all ages and sizes, my experience does not stop at dogs as I have taken care of cats, lizards, and chickens as well. I am a full time student with availability at the beginning and end of each day and some here and there in the middle, I also work full time on the weekends but make sure to stop in on pooches during my breaks, overnight, or before and after work to give them the attention they so deserve! As a pet owner we want only the best for our pets, as a pet sitter we want to keep your pets in their most comfortable and safe space your home! Keeping them happy and healthy and respecting your ways of keeping them whether that be crates to keep them away from mischief or free roaming as the ruler of their space. The goal is to keep them comfortable and stress free with ample amounts of love and attention.
About: I’ve had several pets ever since I was 8, and haven’t had less than 2 at a time! I’ve had seven dogs, four cats,a Guinea pig, a snake, some mice, a few rats, and a gecko! I spent a few years on a farm growing up where I took care of several cats, chickens, bunnies, horses, and cows. I love every animal very much and am very good at taking care of them! I’m currently pet sitting part time, but I am available any time during the day! on the other hand I am a pastry chef and work part time VERY early mornings. (5 am to 1 pm) I currently have 3 rescue cats in the house I live in. I live with my Fiancé so he has no problem watching them while I’m gone.
About: I believe a house isn't a home without a dog! I grew up around dogs of all breeds and temperaments, and lovingly cared for my own best dog friend Hobbes for 11 years. I'm ready to be a stand-in best friend for your canine companions whenever work, travel, or life keep you too busy to dote on them. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and a great communicator. Looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I work part-time as a healthcare professional. I often have multi-day stretches of time off, and am happy to take time out of my day to give your pets the love and attention they need. I'm flexible, reliable, and adaptable. My goal is to keep your pet's routine and environment as familiar and comfortable as possible. I'm happy to stick to the schedule your pet knows and provide plenty of snuggles in between.
About: I love animals and think they deserve the world. I have 8 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes.

I have a variety of times during my week that are open. I will take care of your pet as I would my own. I am able to give medicine, crate, play with, love on, and walk your animal. Their happiness and safety is my priority.
About: I’ve raised a border collie puppy along with a golden retriever puppy which have both introduced me into my love for hiking. I’ve had experience with neighbor dogs with sitting and walking as well as my own personal experiences. I am currently a full time student, and working a part time job, but I will be as accommodating as possible to flex with your needs. I have experience in crating dogs safely and typical dog sitting requests. I’m experienced in bathing dogs and providing medical needs as I have had to medicate my previous puppy several times in the past and feel fairly confident.
About: As a middle school English teacher, I’m free all summer and have a completely open schedule to care for your pets. I absolutely love all animals and years of experience overnight pet-sitting, walking and training. I think pets feel most comfortable in their own home and are able to relax when their parents are out of town. I can stay in their space and make sure they’re well-loved. I send tons of pics and videos so you have peace of mind while away. 🐶♥️🐱 I’m a middle school English teacher and have tons of free time over the summers. Caring for pets truly brings me joy and that’s why I do this all summer long! I’m an active person so if your dogs like to walk, run, hike, fetch, etc. we can do that. I have a young, energetic husky so I’m used to walking dogs who pull on the leash or are reactive. My VERY senior chihuahua passed awah recently, but I have lots of experience with senior dogs.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Perkins
Amazing care throughout our extended trip. Kalli, your rover cards and communication while we were gone were both incredible. I had immense peace of mind knowing that the cats were in such capable hands. I appreciate the things you did around the house as well - grabbing mail, bringing the trash in, and especially putting the dog food away when it was delivered. Thank you thank you! We will definitely be return customers.
WOW, WOW, WOW. This was an amazing experience. Kelcy took such grea care of my cat. I loved the daily pictures and the synopsis of what he was like after each visit. While on vacation, I looked at those pictures many times. It was such a relief knowing he was perfectly taken care of. I even made one of the pictures she took of him as my new background screen. 10 out of 10 experience. I would not hesitate to use her again and recommend her!!!
Kassidy did an amazing job caring for our very loved senior cat Peach who needs frequent drop-in visits. We had lots of reassurance Peach was in good hands when Kassidy provided regular updates and photos of her while we were on an extended trip away from home. I definitely recommend Kassidy to anyone in need of a caring and capable cat sitter!
Kelsey was wonderful! The daily updates about our cat and her willingness to help water our garden were so helpful. She even alerted us immediately to a water leak in our house while we were gone and we appreciate her communication so much. We will definitely have her back in the future!

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .

Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy.
